I just remembered a kinda revealing incident. Not really a celeb sighting, but a celeb mistaken identity. I was out barhopping with a group of friends, one of whom was a passable identical twin for Uma Thurman. At first it was kinda fun, "Hey, those suckers across the bar think I'm hangin' with Uma", I thought. It turned annoying soon thereafter as our group was followed, rudely interrupted, spied on, chased, harrassed, and otherwise constantly bothered by people that wouldn't take "stop" for an answer. We tried to explain that it wasn't her and to leave us alone. Some did and some didn't. It went on all night, with some "fans" even following in their cars. It was quite an education in what it must be like to have to live with that level of recognizability. That poor girl should get some anti-Uma surgery. |
